MINI MK III 1970-1973; SALOONS & MINI COOPER

The 1970 minis had a new body to incorporate the new doors with wind up windows, and also at this time the range of body and interior colors was also changed in line with other models.  The design of the seat covers was however retained from the MK2 models, but the grain of the material itself was made coarser and of a different pattern to earlier models.  The weld design on the trim panels was also updated as can be seen here.  Other design changes were made to the headlining, which became a one piece item fitted to roof rods rather than two separate frames used on earlier cars.  The color was also changed to a light grey.  Matching sunvisors are also available.  

The coopers had the same trim as the other saloons but were usually fitted out in either Black or Navy.  A reclining seat was offered on this model range, it looked similar  to the standard seat, but it had only a tilt mechanism rather than a full reclining action.  This seat was fitted as standard in some overseas countries that had laws requiring a tilting mechanism on the front seats.

COLORS AVAILABLE: Black; Navy
